Benvenuto!
Genealogy, the pursuit of our family heritage. Since I started some years ago I have been able to add many names to our tree, but the best part is learning about my Italian roots and the wonderful history of Italy. I am proud to be of Italian descent!

Now I would like to go back in history and find out more about my ancestors. Who were they? What were their aspirations? Why did Guiseppe LOVECCHIO emigrate to America and through what port of entry? Where did they marry and when?

Giuseppe and Francesca lived in Abbeville, Louisiana circa 1906-1910. They returned to their homeland permanently with their two American-born children, Angelo b.1906 Abbeyville and Angelina Maria b.1908 Lafayette. In Villapriolo three more children were born, Elvira Salvatrice b.1910, Beatrice Elena b.1912, and Salvatore Anthony b.1919.

Current surname research:

LOVECCHIO, BOGNANNO, LA MARCA: Villapriolo, Prov. Enna, Sicily.
BALSEMELLO, D'OMINA, FAULISI, ODDO, SOTTILE, SIGNA; VENA: Alimena and Gangi, Prov. Palermo, Sicily.

CILLUFFO, NOVELLA: Palermo, Prov. Palermo, Sicily.

Since I started my genealogy adventure I have been able to contact 4 first cousins in Italy, in the provinces of Sicily, Naples, and Veneto. There are many more famigli - I have visited briefly with 2 cousins and hope to go back to Italy and meet more family.

If you have any information I am willing to share too, check back again! July 2007
